Some people were expecting it to be a movie experience like 234, instead of being an evolution of Peace Walker. I know I'm hyped, Peace Walker was the best MGS so far, if TPP can capture its structure on a grander scale, it'll be pretty much the best game of all time.

>>297716270You know gaming "journalists" have no self respect so they are willing to shit on a preview for more views on their blogs. If the game is anything like ground zeroes but bigger, then Im going to love it considering that I got well more than 40 hours dicking around in camp omega

I thought it was almost worse than Portable Ops. The whole Motherbase management stuff was a total chore, and all those side missions are far from from. Kojima makes better games when they're more linear.

>>297716934I feel like the motherbase management will be a lot better when you can actually see your staff and the base expanding etc. However i'm really disappointed to see you apparently can't enter buildings

>>297716960It was the first one that had good gameplay combined with the freedom of the mission structure.The mainline MGS before it were all movie games, where the gameplay was hampered by being locked to a specific section of the game, unable to even redo many parts without replaying the whole game.

It had its flaws of course, mostly because it was a handheld title, but TPP seems to be fixing all of that.

I always knew it, its horrible control schemes, horrible cutscenes and writing, the only thing it's got going for it are the graphics and innovations in gameplay. but the controls and cutscene overload rape this series ever since MGS1 first disc.

>>297719742I know that picture is supposed to be a joke, but why is it so weird in games when the creator is credited? Think about book covers, author's name is sometimes 20-50x as big as the book title.

Did the question of why he was leaving ever cross your mind? Maybe its because Konami was raping his baby into a mutilated Frankenstein of Pokemon, Gears of War, Red Dead Redemption, and every iPhone game ever.

Thats what I called it because I knew there would be no other reason he would leave his legacy behind. I was obviously right.

>>297720026It's not open world in that sense, it's the mission structure from PW with larger maps similar to the map from GZ.If you think the linear path previous games had was better, then too bad. I think I speak for the majority of people when I say that the way PW and TPP are going to do it is a huge improvement.

>>297720103>Did the question of why he was leaving ever cross your mind?Konami decided all of sudden "fuck every, we mobile now". Kojima himself probably had no idea what's going on when all it happened. Just few days before big changes at Konami workers responded to what fans asked them on Twitter like usual back then.

>>297719960MGS is supposed to be an homage to action movies, and a lot of movies like the slap the director's name on the cover. It's pretty shitty that they do it on other games Kojima is involved in, though.

>>297716270>Peace Walker 2.0 is boring as shitWell that was hard to see coming. Who thought turning a series renowned for its intricate gameplay scenarios and setpieces into an open world game where you grind shit with a baloon was a good idea?
